InproTK

In my PhD project, I developed the incremental processing toolkit and its modules for incremental speech recognition (built on by Google to implement online speech-to-text) and incremental speech synthesis (still awaiting commercialization...).

Since its inception more than a decade ago, new toolkits have sprung to life which is why I do not recommend using InproTK anymore. Nevertheless, the original (still mostly useable) code base is available at http://bitbucket.org/inpro/inprotk. A partial, more modular version (on the way towards inprotk2) is at http://github.com/timobaumann/inprotk.
